Our Annual Report
Our Objectives
Target achievement: For our traineeship programs, we were able to achieve our target of keeping the number of trainees at a consistently high level and further increasing the number of trainees from 630 in 2023 to 662 trainees in 2024 – a new record for Vonovia. This corresponds to a training rate of 5.6 % (for Germany).
Medium-term target (2030): In the medium term, Vonovia aims to position itself as a leading training company in the housing industry and to retain both its young and experienced employees by providing them with career prospects that are tailored to their individual circumstances. We also intend to continuously expand our broad range of training offers to make these formats accessible to even more occupational groups and segments of our workforce.
Challenges, Opportunities and Risks
Opportunities
The ongoing advancement of training and development programs, along with the creation of long term, individually tailored career paths, provides Vonovia employees at all levels with long-term growth prospects. This also allows us to demonstrate that we are an attractive employer and helps us to attract and retain the best talent. By aligning our business strategy with key megatrends, we can tap into new business areas and open up a wide range of forward-looking training and career paths for our employees at Vonovia.
Risks
Given the shortage of skilled workers and the evolving dynamics in the workplace, the associated qualification requirements pose a partial risk for us, particularly in technical trades. We continuously adapt our training and educational programs, along with other offerings, to create an appealing, contemporary work environment. This proactive approach is part of our regular risk assessment and comprehensive human capital development initiatives, supported by a progressive corporate culture. Consequently, we assess this risk as low in terms of potential loss and probability of occurrence.
